Gibson Custom Shop Les Paul Custom Electric Guitar - Ebony

Our Take:

Straight from the Gibson Custom Shop comes a faithful recreation of the guitar for which the Shop was named: the Les Paul Custom. Sporting a variety of "tuxedo" accoutrements, this Les Paul Custom has absolutely no shortage of style, all of which is backed up by the powerful voices of a matched 490/498 Humbucker set, a fast-playing Ebony fingerboard, and a gritty 2-Piece Maple top and Mahogany back to complete the package.

Gibson's Take:

As the flagship model from Gibson Custom Shop, the Les Paul Custom lives up to the high standards set by its 1950s archetype while evolving to a level of tone and performance more suited to today's musical demands. Beneath the layers of its "tuxedo" appointments lies the crisp, edgy voice of a matched 490/498 humbucker set, a solid Ebony fingerboard, a long neck tenon for maximum sustain and a two-piece maple top over a solid mahogany body which adds the perfect amount of sonic bite to everything from jazz to hard rock. It sounds as good as it looks, and it looks as good as it sounds!
